Domaine Laurent Gauthier
Vieilles Vignes Côte du Py Morgon Gamay
Vigorous nose of uber-crunchy cherry/grapey fruit and a dry gravel and granite earthiness. Dry and demanding in the mouth. Very stoney and lean right now but with quiet intensity of fruit. Long finish. This needs 6-12 months at least.

Sep 12th, 2016First day it was tight, hard, and pure granite. Night 2 it was a lot softer and more open. Straightforward cherry candy fruit and loads of granite minerality. Lengthy and clingy. Great acids. Very nice.
Night 3 - still going strong. This wine will last longer than the typical Morgon.

Bottle variation :( there is a flaw in this bottle. Having trouble putting my finger on it.
